Fast decisions for children and vulnerable adults

The Hägersten-Älvsjö district council appointed a special group of members, in addition to the ordinary chair and vice-chair, to make rapid decisions concerning children and substance abusers. This applies to urgent matters, such as immediate child welfare interventions or placement in sheltered housing, that cannot await a regular council meeting. The purpose is to ensure crucial decisions can be made promptly, even during weekends and holidays.
